----------------------------------------------

staring blankly at the eyes of a million souls
wonder why they wait so long to go home
could it be they've lost the will to know
could it be i'm lost on that same road

earth as flesh
desire and greed
we've lost all hope
what more do they need
burned on life
no energy
stumble and fall
the vultures will feed

I can't believe myself sometimes
I mean how many times
did I hide behind walls
built of lies where I'd try
to rewind just to find
myself stuck in the concept
of time built up in my mind
yet the signs would align
to melt in the shine
falling down from the sun
confused to believe
I am only one

What do I think... I think why are you criticizing my stuff so critically? This didn't impress me at all.

why am i criticizing your stuff so critically? hmmm. actually i liked most of everything i read from you and told you so. I beleive the words very good, keep up the good work, and brilliant were all used. yeah, so i didn't like a few lines in one of your poems, big deal, i was just commenting. sounds like you were upset with what I commented about yours and therefore couldn't read mine unbiasedly. That's ok, I'm not trying to impress you, I'm just trying to impress myself, and if I enjoy it, that's all that matters. thanks for your comment.

finally a writer who rambles feelings and thoughts instead of pefecting them so they make all the sense in the world. your poem is alot more raw than other poems out there. feelings, thoughts, emotions etc. are never supposed to be confined to perfection. i comemorate you on your poem. and despite what other's have written about it i find it very easy to understand.
